What's on at The Tap Yard

Current Beers
Read MoreSee the current beers serving in The Tap Yard directly from the cold store. These kegs are filled at our brewery (just a stone's throw from where you are now) and immediately transferred to cold storage, so you're drinking super-fresh beer that doesn't get above 4°C until it hits your glass.

What can I fill my growler with?
We have 10 separate lines flowing, with a unique brew on each. You can fill your growlers with any beer, but we do have a limit of 7.5% abv. Be sure to bring along your growler loyalty card, or enquire with our Tap Yard staff if you don’t already have one!
What growlers can I use to fill beer with?
Aluminium and glass growlers are perfect to bring Siren beer direct from the source to the comfort of your own home. Please ensure that your growlers are clean upon bringing them to be filled – we won’t be able to fill them if not! Don’t have a growler? Not to worry. We sell 1 litre and 2 litre growlers both online and in the Tap Room.
Note - We will only fill appropriate growlers (no milk cartons!) as beer quality is our number 1 priority.
